I had concerns over price and size..
First of all, I have wanted a pair of these for years and could never justify the price tag from the original source. I was sceptical when I found these on amazon as they are very well reduced from the normal price and wondered if they were fake. I scoured the reviews and couldn't really find any evidence to suggest they are, so hey bonus! The second worry I had was the size. I am a 6.5 but normally have to size up to a 7 as hardly anywhere does half sizes, again after reading all the reviews I took the advice and ordered a 5.5, cursing myself as I did it, expecting them to arrive and have to be sent back straight away. Fast forward to today when they arrive, they are in proper birkenstock packaging, they look and feel very sturdy, the name on the side is nice and clear everything suggests that they are the real McCoy. Next test is trying them on.. and they fit!! Now they say they are a 39 so I guess you could say that they are a 6 rather than a 5.5 but either way, I certainly wouldn't be able to cram feet in to a 6. They feel secure and comfortable enough and as I've read they will get more comfortable over time. So it's a long winded 5 star review, am absolutely made up with my purchase.. well done Amazon

Order a size smaller....
I've had several pairs of these, so the fit was as I expected, but I do order the size 4 (37) when normally I take a size 5 (38) Would recommend ordering a size smaller. If you've not had Birkenstocks before, be aware the foot bed takes some getting used to as there are ridges under the toes. I'd say persevere to get used to it and you will have yourself some of the most comfortable shoes.

They feel great.
They are my favorite shoes.Very comfortable and my feet loves them.Mondo size gives you a very accurate lengthwise fit. If you have wide feet you might want to go up 1/2-1 size.A good way to measure your feet is to place the heel of your longest foot against a wall and measure the length(Millimeters or centimeters). Now you have the mondo size which can easily me converted to US, UK or EU size.

The sole conforms to your foot and supports it
I was told “ when you first put them on, it feels like walking in a ploughed field, but in a bit you will love them,” It’s quite right! They are so comfort able you forget you have them on. The ridge at the front protects your toes and the sole shapes itself to your foot.

Soles nearly warn!
Disappointed with how they’ve last, I’ve only had these 4 months and the bottoms are nearly warn completely! I was recommended these for how well they last, I only wear them a few days a week for work. A lot of money for only few months wear, people said they’ll last years.

Absolutely Perfect
Perfect shoes as described. Agreed that if you have standard or narrow feet than go down a size. For wider feet you may need to even go up a size. I have very narrow feet, normally a 5.5. Ordered 4.5 and they're perfect.If you've never worn these before, persevere. They will feel very weird, but your feet will become accustomed and they will be like walking on air.Would definitely order again.

Looking forward to wearing them in the good weather!
Arrived earlier than expected and in good condition. Love the product and have had many pairs before. You must be aware though that Birkenstock size their sandals on the large. Knowing this I ordered size 5 when I usually take size 6 shoes.

Takes time to break in
Nice comfy shoe but due to additional foot support, takes longer to break in then usual. Good quality shoe and I can feel the arch support. Would buy again.
